Abstract
The present invention may comprise an apparatus and method for calculating power consumption, including a unit for generating a clock-level analysis without synthesis of an algorithm description and calculating operating ratios of storage elements and arithmetic units. The invention may also comprise a method for estimating the power to be consumed by a SystemC model. By estimating this value, a user may gauge the amount of power a specific semiconductor design might consume, once manufactured into a chip.
